1-(3-(6-(3-HYDROXYNAPHTHALEN-1-YL)BENZOFURAN-2-YL)AZETIDIN-1 YL)PROP-2-EN-1-ONE DERIVATIVES AND SIMILAR COMPOUNDS AS KRAS G12C MODULATORS FOR TREATING CANCER
Compounds having activity as inhibitors of G12C mutant KRAS protein are provided. The compounds have the following structure (I): or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isotopic form or stereoisomer thereof, wherein A is a five-membered heteroaryl comprising 1 or 2 non-adjacent heteroatoms, inclusive of X and Y； W, X, Y, Z, L, L1, E, R1, R2bR2c and the dotted circle are as defined herein. Methods associated with preparation and use of such compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and compounds for use in methods to modulate the activity of G12C mutant KRAS protein for treatment of disorders, such as cancer, are also provided. Preferred compounds are e.g. 1-(3-(6-(3-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)benzofuran-2-yl)azetidin-1yl)prop-2-en-1-one derivatives and related compounds such as e.g. the corresponding derivatives with e.g. a benzoimidazole, indole, benzooxazole, imidazopyridine or imidazole core structure, substituted on ring A by e.g. azetidine, pyrrolidine, azepane or bicyclopentane-amine (L1) each substituted by e.g. propenone (E), and the core structure substituted on the six-membered ring with e.g. 3-hydroxynaphthalene or indazole or hydroxy-, alkoxy- and/or fluoro-substituted phenyl (R1).
